Richard Mille...Blah Movement, INSANE Watchmaking?

This video has been a long time coming! In fact, there are only a handful of Richard Mille watchmaking videos on YouTube today. Here's our first!

We had the pleasure of once again collaborating with one of our preferred watchmakers, Chrono Sky, on the overhaul of this RM 005 in rose gold. Our cameraman Adrian was able to capture some visual magic throughout the whole repair process.

Here's Chrono Sky's Instagram link:   / chronosky  

The RM 005 has special significance in Richard Mille's history. It was the first automatic model introduced by the brand back in 2004. During the time, RM experienced tremendous difficulty in the design of the watch.

Richard Mille RM 005 Specs:

Case Size: 37x45mm
Case Material: 18k Rose Gold
Year Manufactured: 2004
Water Resistance: 30m

The RM005 in the video was modified to include a different leather strap than the one that originally comes with the watch.
